Our teams are delighted with the results of using Jest for front-end testing. It provides a ‘zero-configuration’ experience and has out-of-the-box features such as mocking and code coverage.

Snapshot testing would be a good addition to the upper layer of the test pyramid, but remember, unit testing is still the solid foundation.
